Placentomes were obtained from 20 cows with retained placenta (9 following normal birth, 5 after abortion and 6 with dystocia), and this material was examined by light microscopy. Histologic changes that were consistently seen in placentomes of cows with retained placenta after normal birth included vascular changes (edema, thrombosis and vasculitis) and the presence of numerous clumps of bacterialcolonies in the connective tissue of the caruncles and cotyledons. Only a few binucleate cells were seen in these cases. In placentomes obtained from cows with retained placenta after abortion, there were instances of focal necrosis of the fetal villi and the presence of variable numbers of binucleate cells. Vascular changes and numerous clumps of bacterial colonies in the caruncles and cotyledons were also noted. The changes in placentomes obtained from cows with retained placenta and dystocia included the presence of numerous binucleate cells, infiltration of polymorphonuclear cells in the connective tissue of both the fetal and maternal villi, vascular changes, and the presence of extensive necrosis and numerous clumps of bacterial colonies. Significant differences (P < 0.05) were encountered in the number of binucleate cells in the various groups. Binucleate cells appear to be involved in the process of placental separation in cows with retained placenta. |
